[3rd month: You and Lynn have already built your base in this world.]
[Building your base took a month since you had to find the necessary materials as well as the best location for it. Not to mention, when you had built your base, you had used your mind control superpower to control those D-rank evolved zombies to construct it for you.]
[Three months after the zombie apocalypse began have allowed you to hone your mind control superpower. The occasional use of your mind control superpower had raised its proficiency but your control over your mind control superpower was only at A-rank according to your estimation.]
[But you had attracted the attention of the military when they managed to encounter you when you commanded the evolved zombies. The military sought your cooperation but you declined.]
[In this simulation, you didn't want to contact that many people in this world or even learn about the secret identity of the zombie apocalypse's mastermind. After all, doing so would affect your simulation score in a positive way and you didn't want that.]
[You had already dismissed any desire to discover the identity of the mastermind since that would undoubtedly increase your simulation score by a huge margin and it might even reach S-grade, which was something you cannot allow.]
[You spent the three months not only improving your proficiency in your mind control superpower but also your skills in swordsmanship. Although your Master Swordsman (Purple) talent allowed you to stand at the peak of this world's swordsmanship, that doesn't prevent you from further improving your swordsmanship.]
[You felt the possibility of upgrading your talent to a higher level through practice and proficiency. At least, you felt that as long as your swordsmanship reached a higher level and can used sword intent, you will undoubtedly reach the realm of a gold-grade swordsmanship talent.]
[You noticed that receiving talent in the simulation doesn't mean that you will directly acquire the power regarding that. Well, it also depends on the talent since if it was combat-related like your Master Swordsman (Purple) talent, the reason why you have reached the apex of swordsmanship was that the 'you' in this world was learning swordsmanship since you were six years old.]
[Not to mention, the simulation talent was only a talent. At least, the talent regarding your swordsmanship only provided you pure talent but not direct power. However, simulation talents such as Remember Me (Blue) and Dual Awakener (Gold) talent granted you direct power.]
[You didn't know the reason for that. You also didn't care much since your goal was to improve your combat power in this simulation as much as possible without reaching S-grade in your simulation score.]
[While you were training swordsmanship in your backyard, Lynn would often pester you to fight her so that she could become proficient in her combat skills. You didn't decline so Lynn and you became stronger in both combat experience and skills in the past three months.]
[4th month: You sighed as you noticed that the walls erected around Lynn and your base were surrounded by the military as well as the human awakeners that were either serving under the military or were invited by the military.]
[There was a mansion in the area that was surrounded by the walls which was the home that you and Lynn lived in. The mansion was surrounded by forests since you and Lynn had chosen to build your base on the outskirts of the city. A few kilometers near your base was a noticeable mountain.]
[But the fact that the military and the human awakeners bothered to surround your base despite it being away from the city meant that they didn't come with good intentions.]
[You had noticed their presence long before they surrounded your base since your mental perception could cover an 8 km radius with you as the center. Your base's area was only 6 square kilometers so they were all in your mental perception.]
["Alister, do you want me to deal with them? I presume they are here to execute you for being in a relationship with a zombie like me. After all, in their human brains, they wanted to make an example out of you to prevent any human awakeners from betraying the human race and being with a zombie." Lynn went to your side and asked you. She was already aware of the situation outside the base since you shared the memories you had obtained from spying on them with Lynn.]
[Your proficiency of the mind control superpower has reached the level of sharing your memories with another person.]
[Faced with Lynn's question, you shook your head, "No, it might seem like that, but they are just making excuses in order to deal with an unstable threat like us. The time we have rejected their cooperation and even killed the soldiers who forced us to comply with them was the time that they chose to persecute us."]
[You added, "For them, an existence like me who can control zombies is a dangerous threat in a world such as this filled with zombies. Not to mention, you are also a powerful zombie and they won't allow two dangerous threats like us to live after defying them."]
["It's quite interesting how humans like them are so arrogant and ambitious, yet their weak strength couldn't back up their arrogance." Hearing your words, Lynn joked as she didn't treat those humans seriously.]
[After all, those puny humans might treat you and Lynn as a threat to them, but they weren't worthy to threaten you and Lynn.]
["Sigh, these idiots are like bugs. So disgusting and annoying, yet easy to kill." You complained as if you were ready to deal with them.]
